Tips to Strike the Right Note

Do as I do. Although you most likely teach your regular yoga classes by using more verbal cues than actual demonstration, teaching to a chair-based senior class requires you to actually do the class with them. Remember, this senior population is often hard of hearing so they depend on watching you first. Don’t just say “Warrior I,” actually demonstrate Warrior I. And stay there as long as you expect them to hold the pose. Once you move, the class will follow you and move as well.
